FAQs

Are the 991V2 trainers suitable for actual running?

While the 991V2 features cushioning technology originally designed for running, its modern iteration is primarily geared towards lifestyle and everyday comfort rather than high-performance athletic activities.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by New Balance, paying close attention to the UK sizing. The product description specifies UK size 11 for this particular variant.

What does 'Made in the UK' signify?

'Made in the UK' signifies that the trainers are manufactured in New Balance's Flimby factory in the UK, representing a tradition of craftsmanship and quality.

Can I wash these trainers in a washing machine?

It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers, especially due to the suede components. Hand cleaning with appropriate materials is advised.

What is ABZORB SBS?

ABZORB SBS is a cushioning technology that combines foam and rubber to provide superior shock absorption and a responsive feel underfoot.

Are there other color options available?

This guide focuses on the Red/Orange variant. Other colorways may be available depending on the specific product line and retailer.

Troubleshooting

Laces becoming untied frequently

Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces if they are worn or slippery.

Discomfort after initial wear

Allow a break-in period of a few wears. Ensure the correct size is selected and lacing is adjusted for a snug but not overly tight fit.

Suede appears discolored or dirty

Clean the suede sections with a dedicated suede brush or cleaner. Protect with a suede protector spray for future use.

Sole feels stiff

The ABZORB midsole provides firm support. If stiffness persists after a break-in period, ensure the fit is not too tight.
